This 2013 EP, Khanate's first release in nearly a decade, finds the band continuing their tradition of minimalist, bludgeoning drone. The two-song, 30-minute release revisits the dense, suffocating soundscapes that defined their earlier work.
- "Capture & Release" was Khanate's first new material since 2009's "Things Fall Apart".
- The EP was released by Hydra Head Records, a label known for its association with experimental and underground heavy music.
- The release features two tracks, "Capture" and "Release", each exceeding 15 minutes in length.
Khanate is a power trio from New York City known for their punishingly slow and extreme take on doom metal. "Capture & Release" arrived late in their initial run, after a string of foundational albums on their own label and a prior release on Southern Lord.
